You will see in events something like "| Connection lost to Z-Wave device ID: 5"
After power is back - switch can not be used more.
As sample for device: NodOn Smart Plug
(http://www.pepper1.net/zwavedb/device/697)
You can configure "...set-up the Power Failure / Recover notification and the associated group" - but it can not communicate with controller more.
What can be here the best way?
At one side Z-Way should detect dead nodes. At other side a node must not be "dead" - but can be "not available" for some time.
Is it possible to detect such difference for devices - or maybe there can be set an additional parameter anywhere?
Or is there any other simple way for a normal user (without "extended scripting"

[EDIT]: Have seen that switch will be recovered after one hour (or more) - so maybe an option "disable" this failed status for specific devices could be an idea? Because of one hour for recovery is a long time...
